I am Chance. I’m a sweet boy who has lots of personality. I love to be outside but also enjoy cuddles inside on the couch. I’m great with kids too! I am about to be a year old this April. My owners would love to keep me, but due to recent housing changes, I’m not able to stay. But I’d love to live with you and find my new forever home!

Story
Yondu was first taken in as a puppy, about 2 years ago. He is very loved by his current family but unfortunately, we can no longer keep him because we are unable to give him the attention he deserves. Yondu is a very smart and good dog, and knows no stranger! He is seriously the best and very loving and just deserves the world. He grew up around 2 small children and gets along with all kids and most dogs. It breaks our hearts having to give him up but he deserves a home that is able to give him all the attention he needs.

Story
Belle lived her entire life on a weighted chain until I rescued her. She was skin and bones, almost no hair on her back and tail secondary to stress and malnutrition. She was also heartworm positive. She has been treated for heartworms and is negative now. She is UTD on shots and has been spayed. She is a sweet loving girl who gets along with my other 5 rescue dogs. She however does not do well with cats and has killed two of my cats. This is why I must find her a new home.
